Played the early access for years, here's the rundown

/pol/shit
>unhistorical black/brown characters in medieval England
>women in combat roles and treated just like men
>revival of paganism when it was long dead.
>intentional choice to not make the characters marry and have children to avoid rimworld antics.

gameplay
>game looks nice for a voxel based game
>can build some nice looking castles, churches/cathedrals and villages.
>z levels are nice and give much needed depth but they're a pain to manage in combat and it can be sometimes hard to select things on intermediate floors.
>combat is a bit fucky and awkward. Raids can get massive quickly.
>this was fixed recent but for the longest time enemies dropped all their clothes and items on death so afterward you'd be left with tons of random shit laying around.
>with the seed system you have to mircomanage your farmers and tell them not to plant or they will plant on the last days of the season or even in winter if the temp gets above freezing, wasting your precious seeds.
>AI used to get pawns stuck when mining or deconstructing anything, this is better now.

>>unhistorical black/brown characters in medieval England
I dont really mind this since this's not exactly a historical game
Can easily be fixed by mods or just dont accept the wrong skin color lmao
>>women in combat roles and treated just like men
like rimworld or DF
>>revival of paganism when it was long dead.
duh more flavors, who cares about chirstfags
>>intentional choice to not make the characters marry and have children to avoid rimworld antics.
this sucks but hopefully there will be mods for it

>>2355045
Looks kinda soulless, maybe it's the vocal shit I had enough. Otherwise how is it any different compared to other similar games in the genre

>>2355048
>unhistorical black/brown characters in medieval England
Welsh, Irish, Britons

>>2355112
It scratches the itch if you wish rimworld had Z levels.

>>2355320
The settlers really need to be more complex to be more like rimworld
Right now their relationship is basically ‘having nice chat, we’re cool now’

>>2355045
Not having marriage in a game called 'Going Medieval' is such a scam.Ive had this game sit in my library for years and I waiting for this to be added. But they never did.

>>2355717
They were so afraid of all the coomers coming from rimworld

>>2355717
It won't be added, they have directly stated it. No marriage and no children because they don't want the rimworld stuff.

>>2355319
Burgundian hands typed this

Its pretty good but I lack imagination and always get bored once my castle is basically running itself. Need to try it again, have an idea for a custom all female cannabial settlement that eats every man that comes into the map to make it more interesting

>>2356394
Just find irl castle for inspiration
I’m trying one

crazy that Noble Fates ended up more feature complete than this, despite looking even gayer

>>2356420
Building impressive castles wasn't the issue, continuing the game once I was finished is. They've added loads of stuff since so I will try it again at some point.

>>2355045
>Basically DF but Medieval and Z levels.
You're a grade A retard OP.

>>2357354
What’s wrong with it

>>2358346
NTA, "and Z levels" implies that DF doesn't have them. if it was "basically rimworld but medieval and z levels" it wouldve made more sense

that sounds so fuckin retarded though. It's supposed to be loosely based on Medieval Europe, the medieval and ancient eras generally placed importance on marriage and the pros and cons it could bring.

>>2356523
How i wish that game was had a more appealing artstyle. I mean yeah i don't mind the oblivionesque look it sort of has but.. holy fuck it's so unironically modern D&D critical role shit with the colored hair and gay ass stuff.

>>2355045
I hate the flat shaded low poly style.

>>2368253
It's actually kind of crazy that the characters have retained the flat look but the environment has been vastly improved from its early access version.

The release update completely broke the pathfinding, got all my people stuck even though there's a clear path down. They won't even build a ladder with wood right next to them. This was was working fine before.

>>2357354
You're the retard for leaving out "AND RIMWORLD," which was why the Z-level modifier was put in, you lying, trolling pile of shit. Kill yourself.

>>2369618
Come to think of it is Dwarf Fortress the only game that managed to add Z levels after release, every other game where people ask for it the devs insist it would have had to be built into the game from the start

>>2369631
Was DF originally without z-levels? I admit I never played the very first builds and started in 2010 I believe.

>>2369632
Yeah. to dig too deep you just had to dig too far to the side

>>2355048
>>unhistorical black/brown characters in medieval England
You can modify the files of the game to change this. This is the only way to play this game.

my pc played this on 10 fps

been waiting for someone to make a reproduction and family mod so i can finally buy this game, also kinda want to wait to see what the modding community can make anyway, if things like new weapons and such are gonna be easy to churn out. god I need a real 3d rimworld game so bad.

>>2370327
There is stranded alien dawn if you want a sci-fi colony sim with z-levels.

>>2369840
What sort of toaster do you have? I played it on my 6 year old integrated graphics laptop while travelling and managed to maintain mid 20's to 30's.

>>2355045
It’s alright, you can build some cool stuff. Rimworld does the relationships much better, and DF is still king

>>2369838
The dev response is so retarded
>actually most white people died from the plague so there's nigs in europe now
Like, I'm not even that much of a chud but he literally wrote white replacement into his game and sees absolutely nothing wrong with it because people who went through the trauma of losing 90+% of the population to disease would let in an obviously different stranger because
>they'd accept whatever help they get.
The guy is so painfully woke liberal with zero self awareness.

I've got 350 hours in GM. The 1.0 release is still pretty buggy. Christianity and paganism both exist in game. One of the end game options will let you go all in on one or the other and banish the opposite from your settlement. But mods save the game, it's basically .json editing in most cases. Combat is a bit ass, but putting archers on high walls and using flame traps is fun.

And you can easily mod skin color to eliminate darkies. Or just reject them if they show up, or if you capture one in combat, sell it into slavery or send it to the gallows.
